Well another Loscon come and gone. This one was not billed to be
anything spectacular, fitting it in bewteen many committments but it turned out
prettty good.

Kurt came up Friday@2pm. After our quick (under 30 mins) setup we
worked on web pages, getting Doctor Chud's up before he showed up at 6pm. The
first main event was testing ok the new Quake 40k patch. We ate Pizza (Korean
Pizza guy sez "hi!" Bob) and watched B5. It was fun but we were short
of people and figuring things outt as we went along. nice weapons and graphics
though.After that we had a 4 player Q2 session that went till like 1am. It was
on our favorite level (or so it seems ) good old Base 2!

Saturday opened up with coffee at about 11am. TThere was much futzing
around with more web authoring tools, etc. Jonathon and I played Final
Liberation which was cool and we also tried out some of the new Q2 mods, namely
Eraser Bots and Damage mod. The Eraser Bots were pretty good, they actually get
better as the level goes on. Natalie was wracked with her usual "I suck"
routine, however other people were still fearing her thusly.
We worked on some more web stuff. Kurt and I taking pictures of some 40k
diorammas and then having fun with PSP. I made dinner and then we sat down to
watch Kurts new anime Gunsmith Cats. Very nice guns, girls, cars and action, but
they could use a bit more T&A or lesbian action. Finally we geared up for
the Main Event. Ze' showed up, we photoed some of his artwork nd screwed a bit
with PSP. Then Mike showed up with an 18 year old bottle of Port. After much
catching up we got down to a great six player match on eth scpace staion. Kurt
busted out the Astroboy model which was hillarious. Anyway Mike obviously got
back into the swing of things really quick (Having seen Q2 for the first time
here.) Even Ze got some good kills. Anyway we finally shut down at 3am.

Sunday opened at 11am with a bitter thermos of DD coffee. Nat was gone
most of the day at Titanic and work. Miles hung out with us. There was some net
qusake with Bob and Kurt. Dr. Chud also did a lot of net quake. WHile that was
going on we steeped to teh lowest levels of geekdom. One guy playing Quake on
the net. Miles, Kurt and myself watching a six hour VCR tape of Quake we made
last Loscon while Kurt relayed the blow by blow over long distance to Bob on the
phone! This was proceeded by a 2-3 hour Q2 session using Kurt's modified Damage
mod and the Kill to Death ratio counter. This is very nice and will become the
new default Quake. Dr Chud left at 7pm, and then Kurt and I played TF nline
until 10:30pm. A full weekend!
